Value peace

Chapter 170 Confusing vulgarity and light ([-])

Later, everyone went to the flower hall to drink tea together. Mrs. Xu asked Gu Xiyan a few steps behind, "Why did you go to Qiaoyuan without saying anything?"

Gu Xiyan smiled calmly: "It's my daughter-in-law's fault, I will pay attention to it in the future."

Mrs. Xu frowned, and wanted to say something, but a woman walking in front turned her head and smiled and asked Mrs. Xu: "Sister-in-law, is that what I'm talking about?"

The woman was of medium stature, slender, gorgeously dressed, and extremely delicately made-up. From a distance, she seemed to be in her early thirties, but upon closer inspection, the loose muscles under her neck and the protruding blue veins on her hands were exposed. Her real age, and when Mrs. Xu introduced her to Gu Xiyan, she said, "This is the fourth aunt who lives in Taguchi Hutong", Gu Xiyan immediately understood her trying to express her youthful attitude.This fourth aunt must be the aunt that Qi Maosheng said almost scratched his face with her claws. With a husband who has such a hobby, there is no time for a wife to relax!

Mrs. Xu didn't hear what Qi Maosheng's fourth aunt said at all just now, she quickly stretched her brows, smiled and said an ambiguous social remark: "There is no reason for what you said?"

Everyone laughed when they heard it.

Mrs. Zhou was also in the crowd, and behind her was always a young woman aged 25 or [-].

The young woman is tall and slender, with exquisite facial features. Standing next to Mrs. Zhou, who is of medium build, she always bows her head with her chest in her arms, and looks like a little daughter-in-law, as if she wants to hide herself. , ruined such a beautiful appearance in vain.She is Qi Xiao's daughter-in-law, the Zheng family from Gaochang.

The topic was interrupted, so naturally no one brought it up again.

The next day, Gu Xiyan went to see Qi Hongluan again.

This time, Qi Hongluan was sleeping.

The servant girl led her in lightly.

Zhenniang sat on the edge of the bed doing needlework.

It's a small bag, and you can tell it was made for Qi Hongluan at a glance.

Plain white lake silk, embroidered with lavender wisteria flowers, Zhenniang was bowing her head, carefully sewing the golden segment of the word "Shou" on the edge of the dress.

The corners of her mouth were turned up slightly, her expression was calm, she turned her head to look at Qi Hongluan who was sleeping soundly from time to time, her expression was kind and amiable.

This is the attitude of a mother.

Gu Xiyan was a little moved.

When Zhenniang heard the movement, she looked up and saw Gu Xiyan, she was a little surprised, she put down the needlework in her hand, she softly called the maidservant to invite Madam Lei, and then invited Gu Xiyan to the outer hall to talk.

Gu Xiyan was invited to the outer hall, but Zhenniang stayed by Qi Hongluan's bed until a woman in her thirties arrived, and she gave several low-pitched orders before she came out to entertain Gu Xi Yan.

Gu Xiyan heard that the person's surname was "Lei", and knew that she was the person Qi Maosheng sent to Hongluan's side, so she couldn't help but carefully sized up the woman.

When Zhenniang saw her, she smiled and said, "Hongluan is afraid of life, so there are always people around me!"

Gu Xiyan nodded and said with a smile, "How is Hongluan today?"

Zhenniang smiled like a flower, and said: "As long as you follow her, she is generally very good."

Gu Xiyan discussed with her: "Look, what is more suitable for you to move?"

Zhenniang hesitated and said, "Do you have to move?"

Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "Have you been to Wan Qing Xuan?"

Zhenniang shook her head and said: "Wan Qingxuan is in Songzhen Courtyard, it's not convenient for me to go."

Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "How about this, while Hong Luan is asleep, let's go and have a look together."

Zhenniang hesitated, looked at Hongluan's room again and again, and finally went in to give instructions to Madam Lei for a long time, and then went to Wanqingxuan with Gu Xiyan.

It was in the afternoon that day, the sun was just right, the Wanqing Pavilion was colorful, and the exquisite little houses were scattered in the forest like molds, which was picturesque and beautiful.

Zhenniang was stunned at that moment.

Gu Xiyan smiled and said: "This place is very spacious and the scenery is beautiful. Let's build a swing, a seesaw or something, so that Hong Luan can move around a bit more. She is seven years old this year. If this continues, she will be looking for I have seen a good doctor, but my legs may be difficult to heal because they have been inactive for a long time..."

Zhenniang was taken aback for a moment, her gaze on Gu Xiyan was a little harsh, and she said, "Let her be more active...Did Madam Wei tell you?"

Why would Zhenniang ask such a question?Could it be that Mrs. Wei still often sends people to ask about Hongluan's affairs?
Gu Xiyan suppressed the doubts in her heart, and said with a smile: "I usually like to read some miscellaneous books... I seem to have a little impression of this situation."

Zhenniang looked at Gu Xiyan with complicated eyes. After a long time, she nodded and said, "Well, there is a saying. So I massage Hongluan's legs and feet three times every morning, noon and evening."

Gu Xiyan had a heart-to-heart talk with her: "You all take care of her so hard, why is she still..."

Zhenniang's bright eyes suddenly dimmed.She was silent for a long while before showing a forced smile and said: "Some things, I don't know too well. When I came, Hong Luan was two years old. At that time, her leg... Mrs. Ye hugged her all day long. She was so thin that she was out of shape...I really felt...I hugged her for a few days. Hong Luan recognized her life, but she was not afraid of me... Later, I was a little bit reluctant, so I stayed... "

Gu Xiyan sighed: "Such a beautiful little girl, but...you don't know why you are sad?"

Zhenniang's bright eyes flickered, she changed the subject, and said with a smile: "These houses have their own characteristics... If Madam allows, I want to go and see them all, choose the one that suits you, and wait for the young master's business." I'm not so busy, so I brought Hongluan here..."

Now that Qi Yuzhi has been married for two days, could it be that Zhenniang sent Nanny Jin to talk about moving.

Gu Xiyan hurriedly got up and asked, "What did she say?"

Xing Yu's expression became a little unnatural, and she said, "They said they were looking for Sister Mo Ju!"

Gu Xiyan was startled, then laughed, and said, "Call Aunt Duan!"

Xingyu hurriedly called Duanniang to come in.

Gu Xiyan whispered a word in Duanniang's ear.

Duanniang showed surprise and left in response.

Gu Xiyan showed a knowing smile.

Qi Maosheng was also very busy after returning to Yongzhou.He was busy with the withdrawal of troops from Jiangzhong County, he was busy arranging the itinerary to Gaochang, he was busy arranging the personnel who stayed in Yongzhou, and he was also busy receiving those in-laws and old friends who came to Qi Yuzhi's wedding.Despite this, he has been paying attention to Gu Xiyan's movements. He heard that she came back earlier than usual today, and she lay down as soon as she came back. He was a little worried, so he found an excuse to rush back from Qinyuan's narrow alley. Liyuan.

As soon as he stepped out of the corner door, he saw Jin Nanny talking to Mo Ju excitedly in front of the open building, Mo Ju was smiling all over her face, and was careful with her.

Qi Maosheng frowned.

Jin Nai is an old man in the family, why is she so ignorant of the rules, she even quarreled with Xi Yan's personal maid.

He strode over and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter? Why are you shouting in the yard?"

Nanny Jin's husband, Jin Lu, is the son of Qi's family, and was once a servant of Qi Maosheng's side. Now she works in the tent of Songzhen Courtyard, and she was sent to Qiaoyuan. Even when Nanny Yi met her, she gave her some face.When Grandma Jin saw Qi Maosheng, she was not as frightened as ordinary nuns, but stepped forward and bowed her knees to Qi Maosheng, and said aggrievedly: "Master, look at this matter... It's already the middle of the month, and we are in the garden. The monthly bill has not yet been issued, so I went to ask the head of our house, and he said that the money had been drawn to Songzhenyuan early in the morning..."

Qi Maosheng's gaze became as sharp as a knife, he stared at her and said, "Do you know where this is?"

Nanny Jin was startled, and said, "Yes, it's Songzhenyuan..."

"Then you still dare to barge in and yell at the young lady..."

Jin Momo suddenly understood, her knees softened, she quickly knelt down, her face turned pale, she knew that if she didn't speak clearly today, she would not be able to pass this test, and maybe it would even hurt her head .

Nanny Jin crept up to Qi Maosheng, kowtowed her head and cried, "My lord, you have really wronged me... I was entrusted by Zhenniang to ask... We happened to Yuan, there is no monthly report, this has never happened... Lord, we are the head of the family, but you have grown up, how dare you have a little bit of irregularity... You just give me a thousand courage, I I don't even dare to step in..."

Qi Maosheng didn't expect it to be because of this, so he couldn't help but looked up at Mo Ju.

Mo Ju is in charge of the treasury and accounts in Gu Xiyan's house, he knows it, and since May, the money originally drawn to Mrs. Xu in Dexin Courtyard has decreased by 600 taels a month, and instead of Arrived at the pear orchard of Songzhenyuan.

When Mo Ju saw Qi Maosheng looked at her, she was a little embarrassed, but she still had the courage to wink at the main room in Liyuan.

Qi Maosheng understood, and said to Mo Ju: "Someone sent Nanny Jin to Mrs. Xu. If there is anything wrong, please report to Mrs. in a serious manner and then come to ask, what is the dignity of this appearance."

When Nanny Jin heard this, her expression became flustered.

She didn't know what was going on at home.

It turned out that everyone regarded her as a member of Qi Maosheng, so they gave her a few thin noodles. Now that the people from Liyuan sent her to Mrs. Xu, and it was when the relatives of the Qi family gathered, wouldn't that...will cut off her life.

Nanny Jin didn't dare to cry anymore, she crawled on the ground and hugged Qi Maosheng's thigh, but Qi Maosheng frowned and went into the hallway.While walking, he said: "When did Songzhen Courtyard become the gate of the vegetable garden, whoever wants to enter can enter..."

Mo Ju looked at Nanny Jin who was crying and crying, and couldn't bear it, so she couldn't help but look at Duanniang who had been standing in the shadow of the corner gate.

Duanniang saw Mo Ju looking towards her, her body tilted slightly, revealing a face like a full moon.

The second girl really hit the mark. When the matter was delayed until the master came, the master lost his temper and sent him to Mrs. Xu...

With a satisfied smile on her face, she nodded towards Mo Ju.

It was only then that Mo Ju had the courage to call Li Ping's daughter-in-law and Ma Si's daughter-in-law, who were accompanied by the Wei family, "Mother Li, Mother Ma, please come and help us. We sent Mother Jin to Mrs. Xu. It’s better to come back and pay errands to the Lord.”

(Tomorrow, the leader will inspect and go to work normally, so I changed the additions that I promised everyone to today, and I may only have to change it tomorrow. I hope everyone will do a lot!)
